Bridges to Ask Unions
Overseas to Boycott
Army 'Scab' Cargoes
ly th* Associated Press
; SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 15.—
Despite only limited success so lar.
the Army today sought to sign up
Pacific Coast dock workers to move
(military cargo piled up during the
14-day maritime strike.
Harry Bridges, CIO longshore
mens leader, labeling all those who
signed up with the Army as strike
breakers, declared he would request
unions in all foreign ports to re
fuse to handle ‘ scab” ships.
This cast an international im
plication into the crippling tie-up
and made uncertain the unloading
of Army food and supplies destined
for Pacific areas.
Bridges Heads Pickets.
Army action to hire men directly
was taken yesterday after shipping
employers refused to load or sail
as long as they had to deal with
what they called ‘‘Communist Party
line leadership.” Mr. Bridges has
refused to sign a non-Communist
affidavit under the Taft-Hartley
Act.
Mr. Bridges personally led lines of
his white - capped longshoremen
forming virtually a shoulder-to
shoulder barricade in front of the
Army employment office at the Fort
Mason Port of Embarkation here.
Men seeking work —mostly non
unionists—were told they would be
considered strikebreakers and would
be fired by the Army as soon as the
strike ends. But there was no
violence. If they insisted on sign
ing up, they were allowed to pass.
Truman Intervention Urged.
An Army spokesman said only
30 men signed in the first two hours,
but the signup went on all day and
continued today. The total was not
announced, but clearly was far short
of the 250 men the Army says it
needs here.
The longshoremen's union re
affirmed its willingness to work
Army cargo under conditions pre
vailing before the strike and asked
President Truman to intervene to
change the Army’s altitude.
Addressing his longshoremen in
front of the Fort Mason office, Mr.
Bridges declared:
‘‘Let’s make sure this thing flops.
They (the Army) are offering a com
plete open shop. This is strike
breaking 1948 style—the Army and
the shipowners.”
150 Vessels, 28,000 Men Idle.
The strike, basically over wages
and interpretation of the hiring hall,
has made idle 150 vessels and about
28,000 men in Pacific Coast ports.
Foodstuffs were reported jamming
freight termihals all along the coast.
Meantime, the National Labor Re
lations Board planned to reopen
hearings today on employer charges
that the longshoremen's union is
guilty of unfair labor practices by
virtue of insisting on a hiring hall
made illegal by the Taft-Hartley Act.
Churchill Passes Up $8,000
Due Him as Yearly Salary
By the Associated Press
LONDON, Sept. 15. —Winston
Churchill is passing up an income
of 2,000 pounds ($8,000) a year which
he is entitled to draw from the
Government, a financial report dis
closed yesterday.
He has a right to this sum either
as pay for his services as leader of
the Conservative opposition in
Parliament or as a former prime
minister.
But Britain’s annual balance
sheet, published as a white paper
today, showed he had taken none
of the money since he was last paid
as opposition leader for April, 1947.
The white paper, for the fiscal
year ended last March 31, disclosed
the national debt at the year’s end
as £25,722,387,153 ($102,889,548,612).
Wartime advances to Allied gov
ernments still outstanding included:
Russia. £35,710,000 ($142,840,000)
and France, £99.684.693 ($398,738,
772).
Excavation Begun on Site
Of United Nations Center
By th« Associated Prw»«
NEW YORK, Sept. 15.—Excava
tion has begun on the site of a new
$65,000,000 United Nations head
quarters.
While a few hundred spectators
watched, Benjamin Cohen of Chile,
acting U. N. secretary-general,
turned the first spade at ground
breaking ceremonies yesterday.
Mayor William O’Dwyer said he is
confident there “will be established
here a plan for peace so that the
little children of today will never
know what it is to have a World
War.'
The 13-acre site on Manhattan’s
East Side was donated by John D.
Rockefeller, jr.
Building of the new world capitol
is to be financed with a $65,000,000
interest-free loan to the U. N., re
cently appropriated by Congress. A
skyscraper secretariat building is
expected to be ready for occupancy
in 1950.

Truck Strike«Mediafop
Seeks Wage Solution
On O'Dwyer Order
ly the Associated Press
NEW YORK. Sept. 15.—Mayor*
William O’Dwyer has named a spe
cial mediator in the Metropolitan!
truck strike, and has told him to
clear up the "cnaotic” conditions
in the industry’s labor relations.
The mediator, Hugh E. Sheridan, j
a truck company owner and im
partial arbitrator in the industry j
for eight years, was called into the
dispute yesterday as strike develop-!
ments took a turn for the worse.
The Mayor asked Mr. Sheridan to
find "some way in which order can
be made out of the chaotic situa
tion” in regard to varying union
wage demands, and diverse policies
of employers in meeting the de
mands.
Mayor O’Dwyer said a “confusing
and unhealthy condition” has re
sulted.
Would Need a “Houdini.
Mr. Sheridan, a former truckman
himself, commented that it would
take a "Houdini” to untangle the
present complex wage knot.
Here is the situation he has to
deal with:
The city’s largest local of the AFL
International Brotherhood of Team
sters, No. 807, which spearheaded
jthe two-week-old strike, is demand
ing a 17>2-cents-an-hour wage in
crease and various welfare benefits.
On the basis of these terms, it
has signed contracts with 727 in
dividual trucking concerns, sending,
about 4.900 of its members back to
work. About 4.500 still are on
! strike.
8.300 Truckers Still Idle.
Local 282, the city’s second largest,
has raised its demands to 25 cents
an hour, and about 3,800 of its 4,500
members have walked off their jobs
without a strike call.
This means that a total of about
8,300 truckers are idle—nearly as
many as at the start of the strike
September 1.
With the two locals demanding a
separate set of terms, the city’s third
and smallest Teamsters Local, No.
816, has kept its members working
under still another wage formula
worked out by union and employer
negotiators before the strike.
This calls for a 15-cent hourly
increase.
Hauling of Cargoes Disrupted.
The new walkouts yesterday
caused more disruption in the move
ment of food and freight.
Hauling of cargo of the Pennsyl
vania and New York Central Rail
roads from yards to ship piers was
halted as drivers charged a “lock
out” by truck firms serving the rail
roads in water-front operations.
Milk supplies for schools and
stores were imperiled after Local
807 withdrew an emergency agree
ment to deliver fiber milk contain
ers used generally here instead of
bottles.
The union said it was revoking;
the agreement because the Ameri
can Can Co., manufacturer of the
containers, had refused to Join in
meeting the 17 y, -cent terms.
Drivers for the company's plants
in Brooklyn and Jersey City, N. J„
quit work yesterday morning and a
milk dealer spokesman said city
schools would get no milk after to
morrow and stores would get only
40 per cent of normal supplies.
In Newark, N. J., a strike of
Teamsters’ Local 478 came to an
official end last night, after mem
bers ratified an agreement provid
ing a 15-cent hourly increase, plus
any other wage gains granted to the
New York City drivers.
